Vitamins and supplements



Recommended Posts

I'm going to be traveling to California shortly and want to pick up some chewable vitamins and/or supplements on my trip, as I can't find them where I live in Europe. These have to be something I can purchase in a "real" shop (Target, Wal-Mart, GNC, etc) since I won't have time (or a mailing address) to order from an online source. Any recommendations would be appreciated! Thanks, everybody!

If you can find someone who has a membership to costco you can usually buy on bulk for a good price. If not, any other store is fine. I have used CVS chewable multi-vitamins.

I have ordered all my Vitamins from Unjury. They make blends based on the special needs post band. They use bioavailable vitamins and never use any products from China. I found you have to be careful with vitamins from discount stores. Www.unjury.com

I've been happy with all of their products.

I take vitafusion Vitamins and Vitamin D Gummy chewables. They taste great and easy to go down. I bought them at Walmart, sensibly priced :) I would avoid the gummies that are sugar coated..they are too sweet :P

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
